posed joint sheet metal across the base of the box has all the junctions of sheet metal and interior doors.








and acoustic planned throughout the base .

 

Wings c est les ailes pour les poulets. La c est plutôt fenders

Soon painted and ready for summer !

 

thank you for the correction nali

yes I would love to finish it for the summer .

 

Beau travail !!! good work.

 

Wings = British; fenders = American.

 

Oh ... Thanks Ned.
Sorry so

 

That is true, you just can't make a sow's ear out of a silk purse!

 

We all get a lesson every once and while .British boot, American trunk,or hood and bonnet ,your never too old to learn I'm pushing the big 7 0

 

I like that: I must remember it.

I've long said, while you can't make a silk purse from a sow's ear you can make a perfectly respectable pigskin wallet.

 

You got the some great skills mate, I,ll subscribe .

 

I'm in awe...subscribed Mika!

 

I love this thing - can´t wait to see it painted.

greetings joey

 

Amazing work Mika!

 

Mika, What kind of car is that in back ground of the last few photos? (the greenish one)

 

Looks like a Renault 4CV to me.

(Apparently it had the reputation as the world's only four-door, two-seat car )

 

good call, thanks Dawie

 

Yes, it s a 4Cv

 

My brother in law collects Citroens, He has five of them, well actually one is a Panhard. This is in Denver.

I never owned one but we rode around in a DS when I was a kid in Europe. Dad always wanted to buy one and hop it up with a four cylinder reverse rotation Chevy II or Mercruiser but never did.

There was a kid I knew that had the rarest of the rare, the four wheel drive twin engine 2CV. His father sent it to the crusher when he was in the Navy, I don't think they ever spoke again until the father died over that.

 

the rare 2cv is a 2cv sahara, orginal produced by citroen a twin engine 4x4! verry light weight. there are a few orignals left, but many people make replica's of them.

 

hello shadowsintonightmare.
the World 2CV will be for next year, it must finish before .
I'm from northern France, between Calais and Arras .

 

and yes it is a renault 4 cv 1954.
this is a future project, body stock but I would put a mechanical vw beetle can be with a turbo ...to follow

 

paint job on the frame .
First a primary anti rust , I do not have room painting I did what I could .
I protected the whole workshop with plastic







Then comes the final painting frame it is a gray polyurethane .





some other parts of the rolling chassis are painted of gray color .

 

I've been watching this build for a while. I decided to join the site just to say great job Mika

 

Here's a 4CV from another thread:

This one is US-registered and runs a blower.

 

Love to see the finish

I mostly worked on DS21'S to many people put ATF in Hydraulic Reservoir
Lots of new parts
